Orangutany - samce potrafią zgwałcić kobietę (niewiele brakowało a jeden z nich zgwałciłby samą Julię Roberts), orangutany - samice były wykorzystywane w przeszłości jako prostytutki na terenie dzisiejszej Indonezji, potrafią też w wyrafinowany sposób uwodzić mężczyzn i reagować na odrzucenie ich zalotów dokładnie tak samo jak kobieta. Wreszcie są poszlaki - aczkolwiek w żadnym wypadku niezweryfikowane naukowo - iż ze związku orangutana i kobiety mogły powstawać zdolne do życia hybrydy. Ta ostatnia kwestia jest raczej zagadnieniem z zakresu kryptozoologii, jednakże eporuszam ją w tym wątku - ze względu na ciekawy materiał poznawczy, który podlinkowuję do wglądu. O inteligencji tych małp i ich życiu emocjonalnym mającym liczne analogie do sytuacji w świecie człowieka - wiedzą wszyscy
Co z tego, co wyżej, wynika??? Może, to, iż małpom człekokształtnym - człowiekowatym ( goryl, orangutan, szympans, bonobo) winno się zagwarantować status inny, "lepszy" niż "zwykłego" zwierzęcia - ze wszystkimi skutkami takiej decyzji???

"Male orangutans procreate by rape and have been known to rape the women studying them ([orangutan researcher Biruth] Galdikas' cook was raped). This was almost the fate of Julia Roberts when she made a documentary at Camp Leakey in 1996. One male took a shine to her and grabbed her as she walked along a path. Luckily, a film crew was present, though it took five men to free her from the ape's grasp".

"The rape just mentioned took place when a wild-born male orangutan named Gundul, who frequented one of Galdikas's research camps, attacked a Dayak woman who worked there as a cook. In her book Reflections of Eden, (1995, 294) Galdikas says, "I had never seen Gundul threaten or assault a woman, although he often charged male assistants. The cook was screaming hysterically. I thought, 'He's trying to kill her.'" Galdikas relates how she beat Gundul and tried to pull him away, but then she says,I began to realize that Gundul did not intend to harm the cook, but had something else in mind. The cook stopped struggling. "It's all right," she murmured. She lay back in my arms, with Gundul on top of her. Gundul was very calm and deliberate. He raped the cook. As he moved rhythmically back and forth, his eyes rolled upward to the heavens. I was in shock....Gundal let the cook go, stood up, and, soundlessly, moved off the feeding platform into the trees. It was over just like that."

"In another case the scientist Gary Shapiro spent many months as a young man at the camp teaching the young female orangutan known as Princess to use sign language.He was conducting the groundbreaking research for his doctorate. Princess was a good student and enjoyed the attention.Having bonded with her mentor, one day she took Shapiro to a ground nest she had prepared. Then she proceeded to lie down and very clearly invite young man to have sex with her. Was Princess confusing the signs or just acting within the norms of her own orangutan culture? When Shapiro turned her down, She was apparently confused and embarrassed, snubbing him for a period until she got over it and the two of them got back on with the job of teaching and learning."
